Ouch, that is definitely not normal. Boot time for me (from NVMe SSD) is less than 30 seconds after selecting boot disk in OpenCore Picker.@CaseySJ What is a normal boot time from this z490 vision D build? I have 32 GB ram in my build and planning to expand to 64 GB. Currently, it takes 1 minute and 30 sec to boot from OS picker to apple login page and I got black screen for 30 sec during the process. Is that normal?
- Replace the files inside EFI/OC/Tools with the new versions you downloaded.
- CFG-Lock.efi is not part of OpenCore so don't replace this file.
Do you think the slow boot time got something do with my Samsung 970 Evo NVME 1TB SSD?Ouch, that is definitely not normal. Boot time for me (from NVMe SSD) is less than 30 seconds after selecting boot disk in OpenCore Picker.
Suggestions:
- BIOS Setup --> CSM Support --> Enable
- At OpenCore Picker, press and release CMD-Vto enable Verbose mode. If there's a large pause during startup, make a note of last couple of the log messages during the pause.
- Of course, if the screen goes blank for 30 seconds, there's nothing to note down for that particular pause.
- If you're using HDMI, try switching to DP.
- If you're using DP, try switching to HDMI.
- Connect only 1 monitor (if you have more than one).
- Perform CMOS Reset, then configure all BIOS parameters again starting with F7 (Load Optimized Defaults).
Either one is okay.@CaseySJ , Did you mean here to replace the whole folder (except CFG-Lock.efi file) OR replace the existing files?
This is most likely due to outdated EFI/OC/Resources folder. Please do this:I tired both ways, but getting non-graphical menu of 0.7.4 and it seems it can not fully recognize my bootable devices (did not have this issue on 0.6.3)
This is a common issue. Simply go to BIOS Setup --> Boot. The first boot priority is most likely OpenCore. Change the first boot priority to the name of the physical disk. Save BIOS changes and exit. The OCB: StartImage failed message should disappear.1. Windows
2. EFI
3. EFI
4. Install macOS Catalina (external)
5. OpenSHekll.efi
After choosing either 2 or 3 (I suspect these may be my 2 cloned Catalina system drives), I'm getting:
OCB: StartImage failed - Unsupported
How much free space is available on the 970 EVO NVMe SSD? Depending on amount of free space, it is possible that boot times on Samsung drives can be slowed down.Do you think the slow boot time got something do with my Samsung 970 Evo NVME 1TB SSD?
Either one is okay.
This is most likely due to outdated EFI/OC/Resources folder. Please do this:
- Delete the entire EFI/OC/Resources folder.
- Replace it with the one from OC 0.7.4 EFI ZIP file.
- Reboot. Does OpenCanopy GUI appear?

I have a lot of space available since I just install Mac OS on it.(I have about 850+ gbs free space in that drive) What nvme ssd drive do you recommend for this Hackintosh build? Also, is it true that more ram I have the slower the boot time?How much free space is available on the 970 EVO NVMe SSD?
